We need to make college affordable in price, and also have lower-cost student loans and more available grants for students.

If there were no government-guaranteed student loans, college tuition would be much lower.

Private student loans should be avoided at all costs.

Bankruptcy laws allow companies to smoothly reorganize, but not college graduates burdened by student loans.

The higher amount you put into higher education, at the federal level particularly, the more the price of higher education rises. It's the dog that never catches its tail. You increase student loans, you increase grants, you increase Pell grants, Stafford loans, and what happens? They raise the price.

Engineering undergraduates should not be charged fees. They should receive grants, not student loans, and the government will get the money back long-term from increased exports.
